Can the latter be more difficult to edit because they have to be very tight, with clear causation? And you've got to pepper them with clues and anti-clues (red herrings)? Or . . . yes, it might just be that you're exhausted after 5 months of editing.<br><br>Like you, I'm a writers with a husband and others who deserve some of my attention. I also teach writing, which is beyond rewarding. But the best thing I did to get the writing/editing done was allocate every morning for it. (Well, *nearly* every morning; I confess that 2 days a week zumba interferes a little.)<br><br>Your post inspires me, since you're obviously also keeping up with more blog writing than I am.
